Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last report: Feeder cattle too lightly tested for a market comparison. Average dressing slaughter cows and bulls sold with firm undertone.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
